Allright. Even though I'd argue that this bug is already being tracked
(cfr my bug report to the kernel bugzilla), I understand that there
might be other bugs and regressions lurking in there - ie. I shouldn't
be pushing for my pet bug at the cost of testing for other bugs.

It does mean however that nforce2 users will most likely not be testing
the Debian/Lenny kernels. The trade-off is sacrificing a relatively
small pool of nforce2 Debian kernel testers vs a large pool of Juju
firewire testers. If those are mutually exclusive, then I agree with you
- the new stack is more important.

I was hoping it wasn't mutually exclusive through blacklisting or
another system, but I also understand you don't want to introduce this
complexity for a potentially temporary issue.

I'm doubtful however that this regression will be fixed by the kernel
guys before Lenny's release. If it's not, we might have this discussion
again :).

Anyway, I won't push for this, at least not until Lenny gets close.

Kind regards,

Mourad
